Cheerful Chick by Martha Brockenbrough

4.0

Chick popped out of her egg peeping, feeling happy and wanting to encourage others to find joy. With pompoms in hand she practices her moves until they feel just right and then she sets off across the farm to inspire the rest of the animals to show off their acrobatic skills. Sadly, everyone brushes her off, either because they are too busy, too grumpy or just not in the mood. Will Chick ever find the enthusiastic squad she dreams of? This is a cute rhyming story about those upbeat characters who can't help but spread happiness, whether others are open to it or not. The digital illustrations complement the story well and bring the animals' expressions to life. A fun read aloud for primary grades.
